The Springfield Republican prints
a careful estimate of the crops har-
vested in southern Vermont. New
Hampshire. western Massachusetts
and northern Connecticut The hay
crop Is - per cent heavier than usu-
al and the rowen crop 80 per cent.
The wet weather was excellent for
pasturing cattle and they were never
returned TO the barn in better condi-
ton. The potato crop is a failure.
The vines grew luxuriantly but the
tubers are small. When grown TO a
fair size they have almost invariably
rotted and the farmers are buying
for home use. The crop is not more
than half as large as usual. Rye,
wheat and oats when harvested were
good. The apple crop Is very I'M
even but large for an off year. The

In 1884 the democratic and virtu-
Gus Mugwump papers denounced
James G. Blaine for speaking in va
rious sections Of the country, and
pointed with pride to the silence OF
Mr.. Cleveland. Now, however, this
Is all changed, and these same papers
are applauding Mr.. Cleveland for the
speeches he has made, on what in re-
ality is a stumplng tour for re-nomin-
alton and reelection. Mr.. Cleveland
is to-day just as much candidate
for the office Of president as Mr..
Blaine ever was when he spoke in
1854. But then the only point ON
which these papers seem to be con-
sistent Is in their praise Of Mr.. Cleve-
land. They may always be depend
ed upon to do that whatever may
happen.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WdshinQtOn. oct. Sd.

Washington. Oct. Sd.
The sensation of the day in the
Capital last week was the departure
of the presidents party for the West
in their palatial train, which was the
cynosure of all eyes and an object of
universal admiration to all who had
the coveted privilege of inspecting
the splendid special, as it stood at
the Baltimore and Potomac depot
awaiting the arrival of its honored
passengers, who were accompanied
thither by several members Of the
cabinet, while hundreds of citizens
had gathered near to take a farewell
look at the president and his hand
some wife. The three coaches con-
stituting the train are a marvel of
magnifcence and artistic genius, and
cost the princelv sum of 5000, 900.
Everything that could contribute to
the comfort and convenience of the
party was provided and arranged in
the most elegant style, even to the
lighting the cars with electricity and
heating them with steam.
And just here, | will make the per-
tinent inquiry why the railway corpor-
ations Of the country furnish the
president with these safeguards
against terrible and violent death.
while the general public are still ex-
posed to the peril of being roasted
or scalded to death. 1t occurs to
our correspondent that here is an OBJ
Ject lesson to our national Legislators
If they really wish to regulate rail-
way affairs in the interest of the peo-
pie.

portant state council to consider the
state Of the finances, and to appoint
commissioners to arbitrate the exist

1t Is heralded as something of alb
sorbing interest that the money value

Cleveland's western trip is $500, 900.
The Jeffersonian simplicity and plain
manners for plain people, of which
the administration has boosted, is
therefore, the veriest humbug. If Mr..
Cleveland really represented the
plain working people Of this country,
as he pretends, he would be content
to swing around the circle at the same

Eviction.

PIERRE, OAK. April 26.-The eviction
of settlers from Big Bend has COM
menced, and a number have already
moved. The settlers were given three
days notice to go, and if still on the
ground at the expiration OF that time,
the military takes charge. A poor
widow named Ryan, who had her all
invested, was ordered off, but having
no means, the soldiers loaded her
furniture into wagon, placed The old
lady on top, and carted her to the
nearest station. The soldiers will re-
main three weeks on Crow Creek re-
servation, and government will fence
great part of the land.
The United States Marshal is in pur-
suit of sixteen indians, who have been
committing depredations in the wake of
the troops. 1t is reported from Fort
Sully,. tonight, that the War Depart
ment has instructed Colonel Dodge to
remove the settlers forthwith, bnt to
destroy as little property as possible.

Calhoun Day.

CHARLESTON, S. c., April 26.-Calhoun
Day broke bright and beautiful, and at
an early hour the great throng began
to gather along the line of march of the
grand military and civic procession
which preceded the unwilling cere-
monies. Nearly all the chief men of the
State and many prominent visitors
from abroad are here to do honor to
the memory of South Cardinals distin-
guished son. The parade formed on
South Battery, and marched through
the main streets of the city to Marion
Square, where the monument is erected.
Upon the arrival of the procession in
the square, the chief marshal of the
day called the vast assembly to order,
and the mayor, who presided, asked
the Rev. Charles Coteworth Pinckner to
offer the opening prayer.
The following order of exercises was
then observed: dwelling of the mon
ument by thirty-two young ladies,
artillery salute of nineteen guns, ode by
Miss Chesbrough, Grafton by Hon. L.

a Brutal Mill.

ST.. LOUIS, April 26.-A long and
bloody fight to a finish. with kid
gloves, took place this afternoon near
small railroad station about fifty
miles north of this city. The mill was
between Ed Kelly, son of a formerly
somewhat famous Kelly of this city,
and Don Daily. a slugger of local fame,
and was for $3.50 aside and gate money,
which amounted to about 5000, the
winner to take everything. In round
Two, Daily got first blood with an upper
cut on Kelly's mouth. In the next
three rounds DAILY forced the fighting.
and gave Kelly heavy blows on the
body and face. In round six, Kelly
got in a hard blow on Days neck.
IN round eight, Daily bled from the
ears, and each gave the other
nesVy blows on the face and neck.
IN round eleven, the fighting was heavy
and nerce. the most brutal ever seen.
Kelly is terribly used up. DAILY is not
injured much. Time of fight. three
hours and fifty minutes. The mill was
witnessed by about sixty of the sporting
fraternity and their friends of this CITY,
each OF whom paid $40 to see the fight.

Judge and an Auditor Furnish
an liam.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, April 26.-Ex-
Supreme Judge John W. Henry, and
State Auditor Walker, had an alterca-
ton on the street between and 10
o'clock this morning, in which Judge
Henry was shot once in the right arm
and again in the breast, and Walker
was severely cut on the head by
blow from Judge Henry's cane. Both
men are now in charge of physicians.
Judge Henry's condition is not con-
sidered serious. Walker was removed to-
night from the house into which he was
taken to his home, five blocks distant.
He yomited hard and complained of
pains at the base of the brain. His
right side is still partially benumbed,
but the physicians say he will fully re-
cover in time. The immediate cause of
the dispute arose from the recent in
vestigation of the auditor, who accused
Judge Henry OF having been active in
circulating charges against him. These
charges. recently published, were that
the auditor had sold his influence in
securing appointments, and had been
interested in the convict labor of the
State, contrary to the law. The in
yestigating comm ttee OF the Legisla-
ture reported that only the last charge
was proven, and that he owned stock in
the company manufacturing shoes in
the penitentiary. There was also an
lll-feeling between the two men, arising
from some personal matters in politics.

The Schnaebeles Affair.

PARIS, April pa Cabinet councii
was held to-day to consider the Schnae-
beles affair. Flourens, Minister of
Foreign Affairs, received a long dis
patch from Herbert, French Embassa-
dor at Berlin, describing an interview
he had with Count Herbert Bismarck.
German Foreign Minister, in relation
to the arrest of Schnaebeles. The
Cabinet telegraphed fresh orders to
Herbert.
A dispatch from Berlin says that
Herbette, yesterday presented to Count
Herbtt Bismarck complete statement
OF the French side of the Schnaebeles
case. Count Herbert stated that the
German foreign Office had not yet re-
ce1yed all the documents bearing on the
German side of the case. The dispatch
also says it is reported that Won Putt.
kamer, Minister of Justice for Alsace-
Lorraine, has been instructed to make
an entirely fresh investigation of the
affairs.
BERLIN, April 24.-The commission at
Metz, for the investigation of the case
of the French Commissary Schuaebles,
reports that the arrest was undoubtedly
upon German territory. There are nu-
-merous charges of high treason against
Schnaebles and the evidence against him
is overwhelming.
LONDON, April 26.-The foreign Office
has received advices from the British
Embassy in Berlin, saying that the
German government gives assurance.
that the Schnaebles incident is not
likely to lead to prolonged difficulty.
